Important information

Regional operation
The Hub can operate in EU and/or US / Canada.
During the activation of Airthings Healthy Building Solution (HBS) subscription, the user needs to select a region. Such region selection is performed once and for all and cannot be changed. The correct region must be selected for the Hub to operate in compliance with regional radio regulations. Wave devices can only operate in the region that is pre-programmed by Airthings.
EU devices are marked “Hub EU compatible”on the front of the box and have a blue dot sticker underneath the battery cover. US / Canada devices are marked “Hub US/CA compatible” and have a red dot sticker underneath the battery cover.

Wave device connection & monitoring
Do NOT connect your consumer Airthings devices to HBS Hub. That will cause additional charges to your HBS subscription due to the additional consumer devices connected.
Do NOT attempt to connect to your HBS Airthings Wave devices via Bluetooth (e.g. using mobile phone Bluetooth). Connect HBS Airthings Wave devices to your HBS Hub through SmartLink.
Monitor your HBS Wave devices via the Airthings dashboard at https://dashboard.airthings.com.
It is not recommended to monitor Wave devices using Airthings Wave App due to sensor data lag when multiple Wave devices are in operation.

Optimum radio range
The Smartlink radio signals can typically penetrate 3 thick walls, floors or typically 10 drywalls (non-loading bearing walls).
Place the Hub somewhere in the center of the area you want to cover.
Multiple Hubs are needed if there are more than 3 thick walls, floors or 10 drywalls between a Hub and the Wave devices. When there are multiple Hubs, Wave devices will connect to the closest Hub, as long as the installation sequence is followed.
Avoid placing the Wave devices so that there are large metal objects between the devices and the Hub. Avoid placing the Hub and the Wave devices in metal cabinets.
Moving Wave devices closer to the Hub will usually improve the radio range. In some cases, a Wave device might be in a local “radio shadow” where the Hub cannot see the device. Should a device display less radio signal strength than expected, try moving it slightly to see if signal strength improves.

Setting up

1. Activate HBS account
2. Set up Hub
3. Set up Wave device
4. Mount Wave device

1. Register the Hub. The Hub has to be registered to an Airthings account before it will connect.
2. Connect Hub to your Ethernet cable, one end of the cable to the Hub port, the other end to the ethernet outlet
3. Connect Hub to power socket
4. Wait for Hub firmware upgrade to be completed. This may take 10 to 70 minutes. Registering the Hub first (as specified in section 1) can help to reduce waiting time.
   

Question Where should I place the Hub?
Place the Hub somewhere in the center of the area you would like to measure air quality. Place and set up up to 30 Airthings Wave devices clustered around the Hub. For each Hub, fully complete also setup of the Airthings Wave devices within range, before moving onto next Hub

Attention
The Hub will not connect to any Wave devices before it has been registered. Make sure you register the Hub to your Airthings account at https://dashboard.airthings.com The Hub conducts a registration check on start-up, so to avoide issue register the device before powering the Hub.

Option B – Using cellular connection

1. a. Register the Hub. The Hub has to be registered to an Airthings account before it will connect.
   a. Connect Hub to power socket. An eSIM/SIM card is pre-inserted in the Hub and is ready for use.
   b. Wait for Hub firmware upgrade to be completed. This may take 10 to 70 minutes. Registering the Hub first (as specified in section 1) can help to reduce waiting time.

Notes
Hub model 2810 can only operate with ethernet connection.
Hub Cellular model 2820 can operate with ethernet connection or eSIM/SIM card. An eSIM/SIM card is pre-inserted with this model. This eSIM/SIM card is locked to the Airthings Hub and will not work in other devices. Hub Cellular will only work with the eSIM/SIM card provided by Airthings.
Hub model name and number can be found at the back of the device after removing the mounting bracket.

Step 3 Set up Wave device

1. Bring the Wave device to the room you want to monitor with the battery tab still inserted.
2. Remove the mounting bracket at the back of the Wave device. The bracket is magnetic-attached to the device
3. Pull the battery tab to power the Wave device. The device will start connecting to the nearest Hub. If the Wave device is moved to a different room reinsert batteries to reconnect to the nearest Hub.
4. Login to https://dashboard.airthings.com
5. Locate Serial Number and Device ID at the back of your Wave device
6. Follow on-screen instruction to add and register your Wave device.

Serial number and device ID can be found at the back of your Wave device, after removing the mounting bracket

Question Where should I place the Wave device?
Place the Wave device in the area you would like to measure air quality and within the radio link range of the Hub. See “Optimal radio range” in page 3 for more information. Do not permanently mount your devices until the device is checked to be in good radio link range.

To set up multiple Wave devices Repeat Step 3

Notes
A Smartlink will be established between a powered-up Wave device and a nearby powered-up Hub. It take 20 minutes to establish such Smartlink.
It takes additionally 5 to 10 minutes for Wave device sensor data to be made available on Airthings dashboard.
If you register Wave devices using your computer, navigate to “Devices” tab to find your newly added device and view sensor data.
Wave devices are upgraded seamlessly in the background and you do not need to take any action in this process. Such upgrade can take up to 120 minutes for large installations.
Allow 7 days after deployment for data calibration of indoor air quality sensors such as Radon, TVOC and CO2.

Troubleshooting

I cannot see Wave device on the dashboard
Wave devices that do not show up at all are most likely completely out of radio range of the Hub. Note that one Hub can connect to maximum 30 Wave devices. If a Hub fills upwith more than 30 Wave devices, it can take up to 4 hours for Wave devices to find and connect to another HUB within radio range.

What do the radio bars mean?
You can check received radio signal strength for each Wave Plus device in the dashboard. With no signal bars, there is need for improvement. With one or two signal bars you might occassionally miss some sensor data samples. If you see missing data and want to improve move the Wave Plus device closer to the Hub or bring in an additional Hub

Warning
The Healthy Building Solution (HBS) Hub only works with HBS Airthings devices. Connection to consumer Airthings devices could upset your subscription and cause additional charges.
Please do NOT try to connect with any devices other than HBS devices.

Step 4 Mount Wave device

Once the Wave device is confirmed in good radio range to the Hub, you can permanently mount the Wave device.
Wave devices should be wall-mounted 150-170 cm above the floor. Mount the Wave device at least 1 m away from exterior walls, doors, air supply/exhausts, mechanical fans, heaters or any other significant source of heat or cold. Wave devices should not be mounted on the ceiling.
Use the included double-sided tape for temporary installations. For permanent installations we recommend using a screw to wall-mount. Ensure that the Wave device cannot fall onto someone or something and cause damage.
Airthings does not take responsibility for improperly installed Wave devices.

• Double-sided tape
• Screw (not included)
• Table Stand (only Wave Mini)

To set up multiple Hubs Repeat Step 2 – 4

EVERYDAY USE

What do my levels mean?
Radon is measured in picocuries/Liter (pCi/L).
Higher than 4 pCi/L
POOR: Keep measuring. If levels are maintained
for more than 1 month, contact a radon mitigation professional.
Between 2 and 4 pCi/L FAIR: Keep measuring, if levels are maintained for more than 3 months, contact radon mitigation professional.
Less than 2 pCi/L
GOOD: No action needed, continue monitoring.

PLACEMENT
Place the device in living areas on lower levels, such as a basement or living room. The device should not be exposed to direct sunlight or moisture. It should be placed at least 1.5ft/50cm above the ground and at least 5ft/150cm from the nearest door, window, or air vent. Do not move the device during measurement. The screen should be facing upwards. The device can be laid flat on a surface with the screen facing up (recommended) or mounted on a wall. High humidity levels (over 85%) can cause permanent damage to the device, erratic readings, and/or error codes.

ACCURACY
Results are more accurate over a longer measurement period. We recommend measuring for at least 2 months for a good indication of your long-term exposure.

LONG TERM VS. SHORT TERM AVERAGES
After a full 7-days of measuring your detector will start to switch from a 24-hour measurement to a 7-day average every 6 seconds. The long-term average is intended to identify potential health hazards, while the short-term average should be used to assess the effects of radon reduction efforts, such as increased ventilation, sealing cracks, etc.
